Middle school kid coached this year

so you coach at southside. i also coach at a LP junior high. Tyre is good for his age

He's pretty good.

Are y'all gonna try to keep him in the LP school system or let the private schools recruit him?

What do you call the offense you're running? I've never seen a back lining up that deep.

It's a variation of the pistol but we happened to have two very good tight ends this year so we ran it out of two tight most times

The tight ends are off the line because we run hurry up no huddle and they can quickly move or motion

But tyre gets that deep because he hits the inside zone so hard and fast downhill we had it put him at 10 to give the QB time to catch the shotgun snap and make the handoff

damn good video. He leaps and bounds beyond everyone else.

Question, is he an LSU fan?

Like many middle school kids he likes what's popular right now. Which means he likes Alabama

But I took him to the LSU-Florida game and he had a blast and was trying to get Jeremy hill to come talk

Craig Loston was at one of our games and spoke with him afterwards. Didn't mention LSU, but just told him he had a bright future and was impressed by him and to keep his nose clean

Very impressive!! I do a lot of highlight tapes for high school kids in Louisiana. My job is to dissect game film and spot things that I know college coaches want to see. I saw a lot of great things in that video. When I watch a film on a kid I look at it a little different than most people. It was very impressive. This kid will be highly recruited.

Kids very good for his age and against other middle schoolers.

5'8 155 is what it said on the video. Hopefully he gets a few more inches on him. Im sure the weight will come with age. But, there are a lot of great middle schoolers that play just like that young man, but dont grow when they get past 8th grade.

While I was watching his video the entire time i kept thinking of the highlights of LF when he was a freshman at St. Aug going against big time high school teams, just 1 year older than Tyre. And he was pretty much the same size he is now. Crazy to think that.

But yea Tyre looks like a great middle school football player. But you gotta wait and see what happens when he gets older before we start talking offers here. Def looks promising though.

bingo

I would like to add that I too realize there is plenty of time before now and the time he would ever be looked at, and I too have seen some very promising players peak out and never realize what turned out to be very premature expectations

Heck the kid whose records tyre broke never got bigger than 5'7" 155 and is in prison right now. I also remember Bret Terrance in middle school being nearly impossible to stop and he kind of never grew.

But tyre is such a great kid and teammate I just wanted to get his name out a bit. Putting up those kinds of numbers he won many game balls and award stickers and actually have away most of them to his lineman every game.

He would win a game ball in film, stand up and thank his linemen then hand his gameball to his fellow captain on the OLINE and tell that kid to give it to whom he felt deserved it on the line this week.

Quality kid. When he was asked by the radio about carrying his team to the championship he said something along the lines of "it's not me, our defende is great. I've never been hit harder than I do everyday going against our defense, and I think we have the best QB in the parish"
